Heating and reheating food

Your appliance offers you various options for heating or
reheating food. Food and drinks can be heated up very
quickly using a microwave. When reheating using the
steam assistance function, food is heated up gently and
looks as though freshly prepared.
Heating food in a microwave
Using the microwave, you can heat food, or defrost and
heat it in a single step.
Take ready-to-eat meals out of the packaging. The food
will heat up more quickly and evenly in cookware that is
suitable for microwaves. The various components of a
dish may require different times to heat up.
Food which lies flat will cook more quickly than food
which is piled high. Arrange the food as flat as possible
in the cookware for this reason. Food should not be
vertically stacked.
Cover the food. This will ensure better cooking results. If
you do not have a lid that fits your cookware, use a
plate or microwave film for this purpose.
Stir food two to three times during cooking and turn it if
necessary. After heating food up, leave it to rest for 1 to
2 minutes to compensate for the temperature
difference.
If you are heating up baby food, place the bottle onto
the wire rack without the teat or the lid. After heating up,
shake well or stir and be sure to check the temperature.
The food transfers heat to the cookware. It can become
very hot when only using the microwave for preparation.
If you have quantities other than those indicated in
Tip:
the settings table, this basic rule will help: double the
quantity equates to roughly double the cooking time.

Warning
Risk of scalding!
There is a possibility of delayed boiling when a liquid is
heated. This means that the liquid reaches boiling
temperature without the usual steam bubbles rising to
the surface. Even if the container only vibrates a little,
the hot liquid may suddenly boil over and spatter. When
heating, always place a spoon in the container. This will
prevent delayed boiling.
Caution!
Creation of sparks: Metal – e.g. a spoon in a glass –
must be kept at least 2 cm from the cooking
compartment walls and the inside of the door. Sparks
can irreparably damage the glass on the inside of the
door.
Reheating
Using heating type "Reheating", food is reheated gently
using steam. It tastes and looks as though it has been
freshly prepared. Even baked items from the day before
can be re-crisped.
Use containers which are as flat, wide and heat-
resistant as possible. Cold containers prolong the
reheating process.
